Recipe: Tomato & Cheese Toaties using Sunbeam's Thick Snack



Tomato & Cheese Toasties using Sunbeam’s Thick Snack

This is recipe is great on a cold afternoon in winter and its very windy. But you can actually make this when ever you like it. J
- Enjoy
 
Ingredients

-       2 thick slices of tomato
-       -2 thick slices of any solid cheese like Edam, Colby…
-       Some olive oil or margarine (I used Bertolli : Olive oil spread with Extra Virgin)
-       2 slices of bread or 1hamburger bun cut in half

Butter on one side of the 2 breads. Then place it on one of the sandwich mould. But don’t PLUG IT in the POWER point. Yet. The buttered side should be facing the black sandwhich mould.


Place the 2 tomato slices on the un buttered side of the bread. Then repeat with the cheese slices.

Butter the remaining bread and place it like the first bread slice.

Now plug the thick snack into the power point. The light above should be red.

Wait for the light to turn green. When it turns green, the toastie will be HOT. SO take care.

Serve on a plate.
